Ah, yes, the good old shift from "NOT DEMOCRATIC ENOUGH" to "Fuck the voters, the DNC should nominate someone else!"
Then you should have no problem with them, since you're convinced that neither side is worth supporting.
There is a side that could be worth supporting. But you're making very hard to do so. Biden could win the election today by cutting off military aid to Israel. Instead he has goons out here threatening everyone. So far I'm not sure what I get for supporting him. You guys talk about plan 2025, but this kind of bullshit used to just be Republican stuff. So from where I'm sitting it looks like the DNC is giving up on Democracy too. It's certainly giving up on listening to it's voters.
God, I love how detached from the reality of the American electorate this constantly repeated point is.
Threatening... everyone... by telling them exactly what the opposition is promising to do?
God. What a horrible threat.
Fucking what.
... because it... isn't having a meeting in a smoke-filled room to remove the current candidate without any input from the electorate?
Or because it's running against a fascist who has pledged to be a day-one dictator?
That's a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is meant to support and provide context for the others. So taking it all out of context isn't helpful in decoding it's meaning.
"It's out of context, I didn't say the things I said"
It is out of context. You'll get plenty of explanations by just reading it as one text.
And I'm not the original commenter.
